Technical Difficulties - Please Stand By

This blogger is experiencing a bout of Festival exhaustion, but we (i.e. I, me & myself) have decided to call it "technical difficulties".

Regular programming will be resumed shortly, please stand by.

SP Hugs 36 - 45

Kim Leonoase

I am counting my hugging Kim Leonoase, a representative from Dreamseeker Estates, as ten hugs due to my gratitude to her for her kind and prompt service in solving an emergency situation today.

The Roller Coaster at Second Pride

I still have a very childlike fascination with everything spinning, twirling or running in circles. I simply must try them... It's the same in both my first and SecondLife.

My Tomais, on the other hand, has traumatic experiences in his first life that make him stay away from these wonderful contraptions. Nonetheless he was willing to try the roller coaster at the Second Pride festival with me, with the warning that he might hurl in my lap.

Well, as you can see in this slideshow my darling made it through the experience without any mishaps.

Repost (2015): Remember Stonewall

This is essentially a re-post of a post I have run the last few years, with some minor changes. We must remember our history and the giants whose shoulders we are standing on!

Let us always be proud and thankful to the trannies who finally had enough of the harassment and fought back 46 years ago on June 28, 1969, at the Stonewall Inn. We owe you, guys and girls!

Read more on Wikipedia Stonewall riots.

Before Stonewall

a person with homosexual inclinations was considered to be mentally ill,
a person taking part in homosexual sexual activity was considered to be a criminal,
a person suspected of being homosexual could be abused or harassed without risk of penalty - except in the most extreme cases,
a homosexual parent was considered unfit to take care of his/her own children,
Civil unions or same-sex marriages were unthinkable. etc., etc.

All of us should always remember the gratitude we owe the trannies.

----
We must also remember that many of our sisters and brothers worldwide still on a daily basis live with the very real risk of

being murdered, incarcerated, hospitalized, abused, raped and harassed
losing custody of their children
losing their employment

simply for being homosexual.

Joseph Nussbaum - SP Festival Photography

Joseph Nussbaum, one of the absolute best photographers in SecondLife, has been taking pictures at the Second Pride Festival this year, and turning them into pure works of art. The photos are posted to Joseph's timeline on Facebook, but so far I have not been able to find them anywhere else.

Here are but a few of my present favorites.
